James Sims: Pulled pork sandwich is perfectly tangy while the strawberry lemonade is wonderfully subtle. Great brunch spot.
Jared Lewandowski: Strawberry lemonade was excellent. Only place I've been able to find chicken fried steak in NYC, and it was 7/10... But I'm from Nebraska, so I could be bias :)
Foodie SL,UT: Grab some southern comfort food. Fried chicken, po-boys, mashed taters & delicious margaritas.

Tiffany Langston: Gourmet grilled cheese and shakes. It was a little disappointing that they weren't serving their entire list of house-made beverages (lemonade, strawberry lemonade, iced tea) hopefully it's temporary
Scott Parmenter: Fried chicken sandwhich, shop tots and nutella shake is the way to go
Nick Cruz: Delicous grilled cheese... tell the people that are working there that they are chessey and watch what happens :)

Mohammed C.: French Toast cupcake is my favorite. Tastes exactly as advertised!
The Corcoran Group: Anything from their seasonal menu is spectacular, but this regular is vanilla butter cake, dyed a festive array of colors, topped with a swirl vanilla frosting and finished with rainbow colored sugar.
Jose Lorenzo Gonzalez: Go and get the Funfetti cupcake, if it's available that day.

Christopher: Red Velvet cake is really good and great with the strawberry lemonade!!
Winson Wong: The banana cake and pudding is delicious. Overall their cakes are really good. There are seats inside the bakery as well which is good to hang out. There are also two benches outside for the summer.
Mazda: It all began with two friends from business school, a sweet tooth, and a dream.
